Growing up, my parents hosted a huge party every year for the big game. Lots of food. Lots of games. Lots of fun. There was also always a movie in the living room for the people that didn’t want to watch the game. I remember watching Anne of Green Gables very fondly. Because you need […]

Who doesn’t like tacos? Well, some people might not like the process of putting together a taco (looking at you dad) so I decided to try to make a bite sized appetizer for Betty Crocker that is packed with all the taco ingredients you love without all the work! Muffin Tin Taco Cups! These apps […]

It is the middle of the week. It is a month since I last updated. It is a fact that Minnesota may freeze off the planet. It is almost time for the Big Game. These are all facts. Some that I am truly and deeply embarrassed about. But instead of wallowing in my usual self-pity […]

It’s the holiday season! Time for lights, shopping, presents, carols and of course FOOD!

I hate hate hate to cook chicken. Between the prepping (gross gross gross) and figuring out if it is […]

It is wedding week! My baby brother is getting married on Saturday. This month has been just jammed full of excitement, planning, prepping and a sprinkling of stress. Most of the stress seems to be coming from the “spring” weather we are having here in Minnesota. Snow storm after snow storm. However, the weather people […]

What is it about being in a funk? I have been in a creative funk. You know my kitchen weekend? Didn’t really go the way I had hoped. I got all jazzed up and ended up in a funk. I think with the busyness of life around me (showers, weddings, work, re-modeling, home buying) I […]
